@calvin ugh. I was gonna post about taking this VM down this coming week, so I can run patches on TECT and then try to run a backup, ideally during a time of low IOPS (only tect running) to see if I can get things normal again.

@coryw IIRC, the unix VMs (cronk, wellsworth, landon's one) all listen to HV shutdown commands; I would just take care with cronk because it has actual content and relatively higher loads and as such do a backup and PERHAPS slowly wind down services before shutting it off

well, I was thinking, shutdown first, but what might be a good strategy is to pull down your content backup on Tuesday, ideally before ~5 GMT-7. I know my roommate will be gone that night and I'll probably go directly home and start shutting down VMs.
